Default HELP!!!

I drove to nashville and back this weekend which is only about 3 hours from where I live but still a haul for my old jeep. my problem is when I went to drive back I went and got gass and everything was fine then when I started the thing back up the air the blinkers and radio and wipers all wouldn't work everything else worked though. What could it be? I have no clue and is it something I can fix myself cause I have to have blinkers and a radio atleast and I am a broke college student that can't pay for lots of shop work

check your fuses and relays would be the first step.

i'll do that but is that common for that many fuses to blow at once cause I think that would be like 3 or 4 all popping at once

on e fuse might control more then one accesory like in your case and most are located under dash on drivers side and some under hood on passenger side if that isnt your problem lock at your ignition switch i had a problem with mine and none of these things worked and that was the cause

Thats too many fuses to go at once. I would check grounds behind the radio and under the hood...Tj
